Embodiment Construction

[0033] In order to make the purpose, content and advantages of the present invention clearer, the specific implementation manners of the present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0034] This embodiment proposes a flexible exoskeleton power-assisted robot, the overall structure of which is as follows figure 1 and 2 As shown, the robot includes a binding and fixing system 1 , a power transmission device 2 , a waist mechanism 3 and a lower limb mechanism 4 connected sequentially from top to bottom. Among them, the lower limbs are arranged in parallel on the left and right sides of the wearer. Figure 3-8 It is a structural schematic diagram of each key part of the robot, which can describe its structural form in all directions.

[0035] Binding fixation system 1 comprises left and right shoulder straps 11, such as image 3 As shown, the shoulder strap 11 is designed with fast length adjustment a...

Abstract

The invention provides a flexible exoskeleton assisted robot which is composed of a shoulder strap, a power transmission device, a waist mechanism, a lower limb mechanism and the like from top to bottom in sequence. A binding and fixing system fixes the power transmission device and can be adjusted quickly according to the body shape of a wearer; the power transmission device can realize flexibledriving of knee joints; the waist mechanism fixes a driving unit through a waist belt, and are connected with the lower limb mechanism through a quick disassembly and assembly mechanism; the lower limb mechanism adopts a wrapped-around design, the knee joints adopt a quadrilateral hinge structure design, mechanical legs can be better fit with legs of the wearer to increase the comfort of the wearer, protective boards are arranged designed at the knee joints, on the one hand, the keen joints can be protected, and on the other hand, guiding can be provided for wire transmission; and tool-free rapid height adjustment structures are designed on upper legs.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of exoskeleton robots, and in particular relates to a flexible exoskeleton power-assisted robot. Background technique [0002] After years of development, exoskeleton technology has made great progress. The United States, France, Turkey, and South Korea have successively launched a variety of powered exoskeletons with superior performance, such as HULC, HERCULES, ASYA, and LEXO. The frame is used for support and has a large dead weight. It is mainly designed for load-bearing operations, which will have a certain impact on the wearer's flexibility and wearing comfort. [0003] The flexible exoskeleton is a lightweight exoskeleton system with an integrated design of electromechanical systems and textile fabrics. It uses electric technology to generate active power instead of human muscles to do work, and uses flexible force transmission mechanisms to transmit power assists. From the perspective of energy conse...
